Public Speaking for Geeks

Welcome back to Public Speaking for Geeks: Communication for Technical Presenters!

Slideshare.net is running another "World’s Best Presentation Contest".

I am going through several of the entries and will post  reviews here on my blog. I was inspired to create my own entry to the contest. I love this story, so it was a natural choice for this contest. It was an interesting experiment to apply the Lessig method and use of visuals to this old zen tale. I am surprised I could not find any other visual examples of the ancient story.

The story is based on a Zen koan I read many years ago. It goes by many names, and there or many versions. If you like the presentation and the story, I appreciate a vote!
